Total 12/19 correctly guessed -(i.e. 63%). Not too bad a result - but could have done better (That damn Hurt Locker)

I think you was better last year.
But hey nobody is perfect.

Btw. did you watched "The Hurt Locker"?
I found the movie boring.

Yeh 71% last year.

I try to aim for 75%, but I'm happy with anything over 50%.

Yeah I did watch The Hurt Locker, I'd give it 4/10. Technically it was impressive, but I thought that the story was nonexistent and the characters unlikeable. Also (as a father) I found that the penultimate scene spoilt it for me (i.e. the scene where is is speaking to his young son), I just ended up thinking that the main character was a completely selfish idiot.
